The first thing that springs to mind are indeed the loading times. It takes ages to go from one house to the next, and even the active load screen (i.e. seeing a driving car) doesn't really help.

Then there's the whopping 161 blocks needed on a memory card. Ouch! Usually that means invest into the game AND a new big memory card.

Apart from those two main reasons, Bustin' Out is as tedious to play as the original PC version. It takes ages to get things done sometimes, or for your character to move from the kitchen to the bedroom.

To sum it up, there are some negative things about this game, but there are many positivie ones as well: the music is wicked! Graphics are quite nice, and so is the camera interface. On PC you had two zoom levels and four camera positions - here you have a view from anywhere you like.

The GBA connectivity rules! The same chaaracter in two very different individual games? WICKED! What Sims fans have been dreaming of!
